Author: Tianjiang Shuo Website: https://cislunarspace.cn

Definition

Manifold formed by neutrally stable directions in relative dynamics, corresponding to periodic or quasi-periodic relative motion.

Application Value

This concept plays a key role in trajectory transfer design, helping evaluate transfer costs and flight time to provide quantitative basis for mission trade studies. Combined with global search algorithms, multiple solution families and Pareto frontiers can be identified to guide orbital design decisions.
